Hamburger Cornbread Casserole

Thought I'd share a simple, hardy family favorite meal... 

Hamburger Cornbread Casserole with mashed potatoes and green beans

"Hamburger-Cornbread Casserole"

(I double this recipe for our family)

1lb. of cooked, drained hamburger

1 med. chopped onion

1 chopped green pepper, sauteed

1 (8 oz) can of tomato sauce  (I use 1 1/2 pints of my canned tomato sauce)

1 (16 oz) can red kidney beans

Handful of shredded cheddar cheese (if ya want)

1 box cornbread (I mix my own from cornmeal and I DO NOT double the cornbread when I double the recipe)

*** Today I also added some garlic powder and chipotle powder

Preheat oven 425

In a large bowl mix together hamburger, onions, peppers, tomatoes, shredded cheese and red kidney beans. Salt/pepper to taste. Add ingredients to a casserole dish. Prepare cornbread and spread over top of hamburger mixture. Bake 20-25 mins.
